We have been coding! We made a ‘pong’ style game!
Maybe you could use Scratch to make your own game at home?
We are programmers!

Computing – Missing Posters
When we came back after the half-term we were shocked to find Marvin (our class bear) missing!!!
We have been learning to type on a keyboard and used those skills to create lost posters for Marvin. Then we printed them off and drew a picture of Marvin to show what he looks like.
The children are bringing home the posters to put in the window. I hope we find Marvin soon!!!
MOG IS MISSING FROM 1L!
Have you seen our class cat, Mog?
In computing, we made posters to help find her! Have you seen our posters around the school?
Have you seen Mog? We miss her so much! If you see her, please bring her back. Thank you!
Using the keyboard 1L
Today we used the laptops to write our names and the alphabet. We learnt how to make our letters uppercase and lowercase. We also used the space, delete and enter buttons.
Maybe you could practise at home too?!
3D Modelling in Computing
Today, we explored 3D modelling using Tinkercad.
If you want to practise at home, follow this link:

and enter the ‘nickname’ you’ve been given.
We are designers!
We have been making 3D models using Tinkercad. We learned how to group, duplicate and manipulate objects to make our own designs!
1s Computing
This week we have been continuing to practice our skills using the track pad but have also been learning how to use the keyboard to type.
Computing in 1L
Today, we drew a picture of ourselves AND used the keyboard to type our names. We even know how to make a capital letter at the start of our names too.
Wow, 1L, I am impressed!
Computing in 1L
Today, we used the laptops! We learnt to move the cursor by using the trackpad. We completed some really fun puzzles.
Computing – track pad skills.
So far this half term we have been talking about information technology and identifying technology around us. Today we began learning some computer skills. Using the pictures below, can you identify the different parts of the laptop?
We started by using the keyboard to log in and then Miss Spicer put us on a puzzle game to help us improve our dragging and dropping skills. We had to hold down the left click to select and use the trackpad to move the pieces into place.
Can you tell someone at home what you had to do? What did you enjoy? Was anything tricky?
